If you don't mind its beefy 17-inch form, you won�t be disappointed.

However, the router doesn't have enough appeal for those who just need a simple, low-budget wireless home networking.

Still, it's not a runaway bargain, and it feels like corners have been cut in adapting it from the stellar Series 9's design.
